Breonna Taylor should still be alive today.
This announcement of charges against Brett Hankison, Joshua Jaynes, Kelly Goodlett, and Kyle Meany is a small victory.
True justice would have been officers never killing Breonna Taylor in the first place.

On the first #4thOfJuly, the Declaration of Independence declared: "All men are created equal."
The only reference to Indigenous people is a slur.
Indigenous people were systematically robbed of their land and sovereignty, and not given full citizenship for almost 150 years. 🧵

Someone killed 14 children and 1 teacher at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX. I’m wholly devastated.
We live in a society where power absolutely refuses to protect our children. How many more kids have to die before power makes radical changes to these horrific conditions?

The day before Trans Day of Visibility, Oklahoma has become the 13th state to ban trans girls from playing on sports teams. These are children. These are kids who are ostracized and told by state governments that they're unwelcome around other kids.

Yesterday, President Biden signed the Emmett Till Antilynching Act into law—finally designating lynching as a federal hate crime in the United States. For many Black folks, this historic moment comes with a lot of different emotions—I know it does for me.

Attorney general Paxton's opinion and Governor Abbott's letter have no legal effect, can't change Texas law, and can't override the constitutional rights of Texas families.
No court anywhere in the country has ever found that gender-affirming care can be considered child abuse.

The Transatlantic Slave Trade and Jim Crow aren’t “Black History” but European, American and World History.
Our history is about a people with roots and hope, who suffered and challenged these evils as multi-faceted, dynamic, diverse beings.
+ Black History includes Black Joy.
